So I keep getting an error 1004 on this line when I want to filter a drop-down set from cell C4 - any ideas why?




Sub Update()


ActiveWorkbook.RefreshAll
Columns("L:L").EntireColumn.AutoFit
Selection.EntireColumn.Hidden = False
ActiveSheet.Range("$L$4").AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:="FALSE"
ActiveSheet.Range("$C$4").AutoFilter Field:=1, Criteria1:=Array("1. Open", "2. Managed", "In Progress", "Not Started", "Status"), Operator:=xlFilterValues

End Sub
 

Excel Facts

What does custom number format of ;;; mean?
Three semi-colons will hide the value in the cell. Although most people use white font instead.

I tried the code and I have no error.
Where do you have the data in C or in A?
You can put a sample of how your data is in the cells.

Data is in Column C. I tried canging the field to 3 but that hasn't changed anything.

You could upload a copy of your file to a free site such as www.box.com or www.dropbox.com. Once you do that, mark it for 'Sharing' and you will be given a link to the file that you can post here. If the workbook contains confidential information, you could replace it with generic data.

Now it seems to be failing at the name? (as I'm typing this I think there may be a space in the macro title though...)

Apparently you can not filter with VBA when you have data from a pivot table in the same selection.


You will have to copy all the data to another sheet and make the filters with the information on the other sheet.
